Chapter 238 Breaking Through the Barrier, Escaping
"You want to see a show, huh?"
Li Jie's smile deepened as he looked at the mocking expressions on Odin and the others' faces.
"Then you... just watch!"
After saying that, Li Jie turned around and rushed towards the ethereal fairy in mid-air.
"This is truly remarkable. Who would have thought that the immortal sword, which once possessed the power to slay gods, would be under our control? But... why is there no sign of the Immortal Execution Sword?"
Loki looked at the two streaks of light, one blue and one red, colliding wildly in mid-air and spoke with a gloomy expression.
Back in Cangnan, Li Jie was able to defeat his projected clone precisely because of the divine power of the Zhuxian Sword.
But why didn't he sense the aura of the Immortal Execution Sword after being teleported to Asgard this time?
Could it be that... the sharpest of the four swords of Zhuxian, the Zhuxian Sword, has already been taken away by some deity?
"The Immortal Execution Sword?"
Upon hearing Loki's voice, Odin's eyes also showed a look of confusion.
"Are you still hiding what happened within the territory of Great Xia?"
"No, it's just that... back then this kid could only mobilize a wisp of the sword energy of the Zhuxian Sword. I didn't expect that in less than two years, he would be able to wield the immortal sword to fight enemies."
"Such a growth rate is simply too terrifying."
After saying this, Loki looked at Odin, who had a puzzled expression, and gave him an awkward smile.
"really."
“This kid has a lot of strange aura about him.”
"It's illogical that someone who is just an ordinary person could hurt Thor."
After listening to Loki's words, Odin turned to look at Thor, who was sitting cross-legged on the ground healing his wounds, and murmured something.
“Father, this is not difficult to explain.”
"Oh?"
"Although this kid is just an ordinary person, those immortal swords possess their own power of laws..."
"With the power of those laws, it's not too far-fetched that he could hurt my brother."
After saying this, Odin nodded thoughtfully.
So that's how it is...
So it seems the Immortal-Slaying Sword has recovered remarkably well, and can now even mobilize the power of laws.
Since that's the case... then we absolutely cannot let you go!
"Not even close."
After exchanging another sword strike, Li Jie clearly felt that the evil aura emanating from Hong had diminished by more than half.
Within those dozens of moves, relying on his own understanding, Li Jie's every sword strike landed on the invisible, ghostly chains binding Hong.
Although it looked extremely dangerous, after skillful control, not only did he not suffer excessive losses, but the divine power attached to those Netherworld Chains was also gradually reduced by Li Jie.
"Xiao Jue, can you sense Hong's self-awareness?"
After another sword strike, Li Jie asked himself in a low voice.
“Yes, Brother Li Jie, but... Hong’s consciousness is hiding on its own right now. We need to expel the ghostly aura controlling her body first before her self-awareness can take over control of the Immortal Sword.”
"understood."
Having received a definite answer, Li Jie increased the speed at which he wielded his immortal sword.
Before long, the Netherworld Chains hidden beneath Rainbow Ice Skin and Jade Bones showed signs of breaking.
Just then, the old man in black robes standing next to Loki let out a soft exclamation.
He raised his hand to release his divine power and carefully felt it, only to find that the power that had previously bound the Spirit Netherworld Chains of the Immortal-Binding Sword was now less than one-tenth of what it used to be.
"How could this be? How could he have found those chains?!"
Although he was very surprised, but...
He didn't seem to be in a hurry.
So what if you can see through my methods...?
Unless you possess the power of laws, even if you can diminish the power within, you cannot help the Immortal Sword Spirit escape its predicament.
When he was about to re-infuse divine power into the Netherworld Chains, he suddenly discovered that he could no longer sense the sinister aura that he had previously injected into the Spirit of the Immortal-Trapping Sword.
At this moment, the usually calm, hunched figure finally trembled and looked up in disbelief at the white-haired boy in mid-air.
Coincidentally, Li Jie was also looking at the 'instigator' with a mocking expression.
He parted his lips slightly and slowly uttered two words.
"Silly X."
Without hesitation, Li Jie plunged the Immortal-Slaying Sword into the dantian of the corrupted version of Hong.
A bang.
It was like a bubble bursting.
The evil aura emanating from Hong suddenly dissipated.
It gradually transformed into a phantom and disappeared into the Immortal Trapping Sword.
Seeing this, Li Jie reached out and pulled the crimson immortal sword back into the sword-nurturing gourd.
At the same time, he shouted loudly.
"Little Jue!"
"understand!"
After receiving the reply from the Immortal Sword Spirit, Li Jie's figure flickered and disappeared into the void, flying rapidly towards the entrance of the main hall.
Are you kidding me? We've already taken back the Immortal-Trapping Sword, why would we stay here and wait to die instead of running away?
The change in art style was so sudden that Odin and the others didn't even have time to react.
Ultimately, they can only blame the hunchbacked old man who remained silent.
If the latter hadn't been unwilling to reveal the fact that the divine power within the Netherworld Chains was almost exhausted...
Perhaps Li Jie and the two immortal swords wouldn't have been able to escape so quickly.
"Heimdall! Stop them!"
"My king, I will answer your call."
To be fair, Odin reacted very quickly. After only a moment of hesitation, he gave Heimdall the order to seal off Asgard.
Then, he indifferently glanced at the crowd in the room.
Not only Thor and Loki, but even the hunched old man hidden under the black robe shuddered.
“If you don’t catch them, you should know what the consequences will be.”
After saying this, Odin took his spear and walked out the door first.
Thor and his two companions followed the white-haired old man with trepidation, not daring to even breathe loudly—this was the aura of a god-king.
Li Jie, on the other hand, completely enraged the King of Asgard!
..........
Seeing that no one was chasing him, Li Jie quickly focused his mind on the sword-nurturing gourd.
Above the ocean of primordial energy, Xiao Jue was guiding the primordial energy of heaven and earth to repair Hong's soul.
"How about it?"
"Give me some more time. Hong's self-awareness is too deeply hidden. Right now, I can only use the energy of heaven and earth to stabilize her soul."
"Time is running out. If she doesn't wake up, we'll probably have a hard time getting out of this mess today."
"Brother Li Jie, let's stall for as long as we can. If it really doesn't work, I'll seal Hong's consciousness first."
"After the Immortal Sword is fully unsealed, I will definitely be able to take you back to the Great Xia Dynasty."
"This is a last resort; it's best to avoid using it if possible."
